The Director of Investment Compliance and Risk is responsible for producing the investment-related portions of risk-based capital (RBC) and the monitoring and reporting of statutory compliance limits. The Director will work closely with various stakeholders within the broader investments organization to assess the impact to RBC and statutory compliance limits based on proposed investment structures. This is a dynamic role that will work with senior management to determine the feasibility of new investments by providing the necessary supporting analytics and documentation around the impact to the company’s regulatory required capital and will create pro-forma models to project capital across a variety of scenarios. The Director will proactively participate in industry and regulatory calls to stay abreast of developments around RBC and state compliance guidelines and will assess any changes and their impacts on the company’s portfolio. Additionally, the Director will work with the company’s outsourced investment accounting provider to ensure that the necessary data points are captured systematically to ensure completeness and accuracy of the RBC and investment compliance schedules throughout the year.
It is expected that the Director will have significant knowledge around all asset classes (bonds, loans, derivatives, equities) to report required capital and to propose solutions to optimize the required capital by identifying areas of opportunity such as look-through treatment, reinsurance structures, and internal securitizations. The Director will ensure that processes and controls around areas of responsibility are fully documented and reviewed, identify areas of risk, and provide recommendations to further improve the control environment.
The Director is expected to demonstrate exceptional leadership, organizational, and managerial skills, with the ability to handle multiple tasks in a time-sensitive environment. It is expected that this role represents the broader investments team in inter-departmental activities, ensuring that the needs of all stakeholders are addressed in an accurate and timely manner. The role will work closely with senior management of RSL, Delphi Capital Management, and the associated Tokio Marine entities for whom assets are managed. The Director will be able to communicate key concepts, policy decisions, and financial results with gravitas to build trust and confidence with all stakeholders.
